Senior Championships – Individual Races
The senior section hold club championships in certain specific races as follows:
Road Races
The club road race championships work on the calendar year and generally mirror the county championships. The races for 2014 are:
10 Mile – Sandy – Sunday 12th April
An out-loop-return course with a big uphill after 1 mile and down the same hill just before 9. Sandy Upper school is the start point, but all except the two hills mentioned are rural and pretty flat.
5 Mile – Blisworth 5M – Friday 22nd May
An undulating figure of eight route, deep in the Northamptonshire countryside. Part of the EMGP series. There is a bar at the race HQ and normally a BBQ.

We are experimenting by using one of the local parkruns as our club championship for this year. Entry into all parkruns is free and you need only do it once. Just don't forget your barcode.
